How can we attract more customers and get more donations for our charity?

The best way to attract more customers to your website is through marketing. By using marketing tools you can engage new donors and keep in touch with previous supporters.

With Cardsave Community’s solution, eGive, you will have enhanced marketing features to hand, so you can attract more online customers:

  • Email marketing – choose from a number of designs and send out emails to the donors on your mailing list
  • Banner adverts – link to Google Adsense and earn extra money from visitors, and add banner adverts to your site
  • Customer reviews – attract more customers by showing comments from other donors, that you can moderate
 

How can a charity or not for profit organisation improve their card service?

At Cardsave Community we can look at your current card processing facilities and help them improve. Card service specialists can arrange to visit you and discuss your specific needs.

We can sit down with you to plan a tailored package for your specific requirements – and we’ll explain every part of the procedure too.

With Cardsave Community supporting you every step of the way, we can help your card processing improve. Card service specialists can recommend which card processing machines you need, whether a Virtual Terminal would be helpful and how you can get the most from taking credit and debit card payments. And if you would also like your online processing to improve, card payment service solutions for ecommerce can also be suggested.

 

How can I reduce costs for card processing?

As a charity, third sector, public sector or not for profit organisation, it is of course important for you to reduce costs where possible.

Card payments are fast becoming the preferred transaction method, over cash – especially as people head online to spend. So it’s essential that you shop around to get the best prices and most effective solutions.

Is there a way to increase online sales and donations?

If you’re hoping to increase online sales and donations on your website, it’s important that you have the right payment solutions available to your donors. There’s more to it than simply adding a shopping cart or donation form.

Around 50% of online shoppers tend to abandon purchases if they can’t use their preferred method of payment. So to help increase online sales and donations to your website, you need to offer a range of payment options.

To help you increase online sales and get more donations, Cardsave provides several payment methods – including PayPal and debit and credit card payments, which accept a vast number of cards. Our external and integrated PayPages are also secure and PCI DSS compliant – reassuring your donors that your website is a safe place to make a donation.

 

Is it easy for a charity or not for profit organisation to accept card payments online?

No matter what kind of charitable, third sector, public sector or healthcare organisation you have, you’ll be able to accept card payments online easily.

In fact, there are just three things you need to be able to accept online payment:

1. A merchant account – set up specially to process card transactions
2. A current organisation bank account
3. A credit card payment, virtual terminal or online PayPage – to enable you to facilitate payments

We can help you accept card payments online from donors and customers with two cost-effective options:

  • Start a new website with our easy to use eShop in a Box. Follow five easy steps and you’ll be able to accept cards online in no time.
  • Our ePayment in a Box solution allows you to connect our PayPage to your website so you can take cards online quickly and easily.
